he term was also applied to some of the Jesuits who had been in Florida and afterward went to Manila; to the Jesuit missionaries in Japan; and to the first Jesuits in the Philippines. Paul IV wished to unite his order with the Jesuits, but his request was not acceded to by St. Ignatius Loyola. The Theatins were never widely known outside of Italy.--The editors are indebted for this note to Revs. Jose Algue, S.J., Manila Observatory, E.I. Devitt, S.J., Georgetown College, and T.C. Middleton, O.S.A., Villanova College. See also Addis and Arnold's _Catholic Dict._, pp. 792, 793. [17] The preachers of Charles V said to the Council of the Indias, in speaking of the repartimiento system in America: "We hold that this most great sin will be the cause of the total destruction of the state of Spain, if God does not alter it, or we do not amend it ourselves." See Helps's _Spanish Conquest_, ii, p. 56. [18] St. John's day is June 26, and St. Peter's June 29. [19] Span., _La puso en el cofrecillo secreto del acuerdo_; literally "placed it in the secret drawer of the assembly." [20] In 1621, the flagship of which Fernando Centeno was commander, "Nuestra Senora de la Vida," was wrecked in Isla Verde. See Colin, _Labor evangelica_, p. 159. [21] One may see in this and subsequent marginal notes of this nature, in this and in other documents, the possible working of the Spanish government offices. The memoranda thus made on the margins of the document by the council or government representative in the king's name, evidently formed the basis of the various decrees and orders despatched to the colonies, in regard to points brought out in the document that needed legislation. The document would probably be then turned over to the clerk or notarial secretary, who would have the decrees filled out properly, and in the stereotyped form, from these memoranda. Lastly, they would receive the king's signature (_rubrica_). Each of the marginal notes on this and other documents, when made by king or council, is generally accompanied by a rubrica, which attests its legality. These notes often consist of two distinct parts, one of matter to be addressed to the governor, in which the second person is used; the other, directions to clerks in regard to what should be done on points called up in the document. These distinct parts have each their rubricas. [22] See this note at end of the document, p. 167. [23] See this note, _post_, p. 16
